Another alarming incident occurred near the White House on Monday night, as a U-Haul truck crashed into a security barrier in what officials suspect was an intentional act of aggression. The suspect, Sai Varshith Kandula, a 19-year-old from Missouri, was arrested and charged by the U.S. Park Police. What authorities found inside the truck is downright disturbing. A red flag featuring a Nazi symbol was discovered, and it’s been reported that Kandula made threatening statements related to the White House. This is not an isolated incident; in fact, it follows a similar incident outside of a Texas mall just weeks ago, when Mauricio Garcia, a Hispanic man with alleged Nazi swastika tattoos, opened fire.

It’s no coincidence that the suspects in both incidents have ties to Nazism. The left has been doing its best to brand conservatives as Nazis, but this is yet another instance where reality is the opposite of their narrative. It’s clear that there are dangerous individuals out there who are genuinely embracing Nazi ideology and it’s about time for our leaders to take a firm stand against these violent extremists.

Because cops always pull evidence out of a potential terrorist vehicle and unfold it neatly facing the media and then carefully fold it back up and remove it. This is a thing police always do. https://t.co/Myn2ZoyNSf pic.twitter.com/x3XplOxiX0

The suspect who drove the U-Haul into security barriers near the White House, carrying a swastika flag, which was carefully and perfectly laid out on the ground by authorities for the perfect photo-op, has been identified.

This incident could have ended very differently, but thankfully no one was hurt. The fact that this happened just outside the White House shows the depth of hatred and violence that some on the left have towards our leaders and democracy itself. It’s absurd and disgraceful that we even have to worry about these types of attacks, but it’s a sad reality in today’s world.
We hope that authorities will immediately take steps to investigate and prosecute Kandula to the fullest extent of the law. This isn’t a simple case of trespassing, as he’s also facing charges of assault with a dangerous weapon, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, threatening to harm the president, vice president, or their family members, destruction of federal property, and trespassing. We cannot allow this type of behavior to continue and must do everything in our power to stamp out extremism in all its forms.
